Originally, in 1922, it was called Curva Grande, for the large radius and its length. Then in 1927 it was renamed Curva Biassono due to its proximity with the homonymous country .
In the following years,we continued to call the curve by her first name. Only recently, it has finally acquired its second name.

A long right turn from the very large radius (300 meters). You get there in full acceleration from the first chicane and it takes a good dose of courage to drive it at full speed!
